Sophie Reisz

Westchester, New York

Sophie Reisz uses oil to create still life, florals, fruits, objects painted in the style of 17th Century Dutch Still Life with a modern elegance.

Sophie Mohin Reisz is known for her refined still life paintings that evoke the elegance and transience of time.

Her work is a meditation on beauty, impermanence, and the gentle discipline of observation. Each painting reflects an exacting devotion to form and light as she strives to honor her subjects, whether a piece of fruit or a fading bloom, and to capture their true essence before releasing the finished work into the world.

Influenced by the precision of the seventeenth-century Dutch masters and shaped by years of living and traveling throughout Europe, Southeast Asia, and North America, Reisz approaches each composition with a sense of rigor and reflection.

Her work embodies a reverence for truth, structure, and meaning. Through her lens, a pear, a petal, or a porcelain vessel becomes more than an object; it becomes a meditation on what endures as everything else around us changes.

From her studio in Northern Westchester, New York, Reisz creates paintings for collectors who value timeless craftsmanship, emotional intelligence, and the quiet luxury of art that rewards close attention.

Says Reisz, "Art is an experience and an act of reflection and reverence. It is a way of observing what is fleeting, such as light, emotion, balance, and grace, and translating it into something lasting. When I paint, I seek to capture the beauty of a moment and preserve the quiet harmony that exists within it.

Each piece that I create is a study in stillness and change. Through close observation and deliberate restraint, I aim to reveal the elegance found in impermanence. In this way, art becomes less about holding on and more about understanding the timeless rhythm of things as they are."
